You didn't mention that you copied the hdr file to that folder as well - but I assume you did.
As it is Securom 4.8, it is a new game, and a lot of new games now have a new algorithm or whatever for the installation cabinet files - it's been updated. I don't think that this version of i6comp will handle the files you have.

Okay, last chance:

There a three reasons why this error message comes up:
(maybe there are more, but not for me at the moment )

1) data1.hdr cannot be found --> must be in the same folder
2) data1.hdr is write protected
3) i6comp version ist not compatible with this version of installshied (unlikely, cos i6comp then quits with an appropriate message).

Well, it's your time and all, but I would never have even tried doing that. What's the use ? When the next official patch gets out, you'll still need to copy the original executable after each install in order to be able to patch. Plus there seems to be about a thousand things that can go wrong if you mess with installers and cabs

@ Rince
Right, of course, but if somebody wants to do it to learn from it, why not.

@logicwatch
I am still confused. When there is a data1.cab then there should also be a data1.hdr or it is a new version where hdr file isn't needed anymore

It may be hidden as you suggest - so in Windows Explorer goto Tools then Folder Options - then goto the View tab and make sure Show Hidden Files and Folders is selected.
